You have no idea how much we all want this to be good news!!

Sending lots of love and hugs

 

[geogem]

Right girls, I havent been on very much lately as I still have nothing to report - headaches easing now, I hope!! but I still dont nhave any other symptoms apart from getting fat!!

struggling to get into my work trousers now!! This is the very horrible stage of pregnancy, no one knows you are pregnant - so just assume its fat!!

Cant wait for my scan now ladies - starting to panic again!!

how is everyone else?? Any news shelley?

 

[Sarah+]

Just popped in to see if you were back from your scan Shelley. Hope all went well.

That's great to hear. It's reasurring when you know you're happy with your care providers

Hey girls...

Well it went........................................


WELL!!

Woo hoo!!! OK, so it wasnt all good news - I still have the weird looking thing inside my sac, but we saw a little baby and a strong heartbeat. It looked a bit like a hamster lol. I cried with relief when she told me. I had my BP done 10 minutes before the scan which was through the roof (it came down after!!)

The sonograher wasnt sure what it was (it seems to be attatched to the umbilical cord?). she asked someone to look at it and they think it might be bleeding, but cant say for sure. Have been told to go back in 2 weeks to check the dates are staying constistent. They did move me back 3 days - so sorry Gem, we're not due date buddies spot on anymore, but I'm hoping for an early one this time anyway...lol

The midwife I saw was lovely, and was gentle with the bloods. I was in there 2.5 hours, which wasnt too bad - apart from having a very sore throat (seems lurgy has mutated into a throat problem)

I will post the pic on here, but its not very good. It came out all shady. Im going to ask for another one when we go back.

As the next scan is the day before new yr, Ive decided not to tell William Christmas day. Just so we know whats going on.

Im so thankfull for the messages youve left, and the concern. I really appreciate it. I couldnt wait to log on and tell you all - OH thinks Im barmy!!!

Hope everyone is doing well today? Welcome to the mad house Peanut and jellybean!!!

xxxxxxxxxxxxx

 

[Elliebank]

That's brilliant Shelley, I'm so pleased for you!!! Whatever it is attached to the umbilical cord doesn't seem to be affecting yr baby so hopefully it will go away. Did they say whether it was smaller than last time or anything? (the bleed, not yr baby)

 

[shelleylu]

They didnt say Ellie, Because Ive been seen at another hospital, they only had basic notes about it all. They asked us a lot of questions about what it looked like before - so who knows!! All wee know is it looked less like a moon this time lol xxx

 

[tabbybartley]

glad baby is well shelley!

i have a scan in one week, for my 12th week. we get to tell everyone too.

im bummed right now though, wed after we went and saw my awesome-couldnt-ask-for-a-better doctor he got in a car accident a few hours later. he got rushed to a bigger hospital and was operated on right away. (thinks he ruptured his spleen) and is in ICU still in stable but critical conditon so i hope hes ok. hes very young, like 35 with a baby and lil girl at home.

 

[geogem]

Excellent news Shelley - Glad you and Bean are doing well.

Been on here refreshing the screen all morning to make sure your okay - and the minute I went out for Lunch you came on!! - Typical!!

Well it doesnt matter that you have had a date change - we can still be buddies!!
Knowing us 2 they'll probably change my dates too!!

Well I spoke too soon earlier about the headaches!! Its back with a vengeance!!

But hey - I cant moan can I?

Really really glad everything went okay tho Shelley, just wonder what the thing on the umbilical cord is? - strange!!

[NikiJJones]

So pleased your beanie is doing OK, Shelley! That's lovely news!!!
I am still but trying to see it as a good sign! Brought up flourescent yellow stuff in Tescos before. WTF??!!

 

[geogem]

oh dear Niki, you do seem to be getting it bad dont you?

I have just been moaned at by my friend who has just hit 12 weeks and is still feeling rotten!! She has been violently ill everyday for the last six weeks and when she asked how I felt - I felt awful telling her the truth, that I feel fine - bless her she is totally green!!

 

[shelleylu]

Hey girls,

Sorry to hear you're poorly again Niki - not having much luck are you?? My m/s has changed yet again, virtually almost gone now - after my last 2 pregnancies its amazing. It just shows you how different they are!!

Gem, of course we are still buddies!! Typical about logging on at lunchtime lol.

I wanted to ask you girls a question...

Are any of you getting a weird stringy CM? I had it start when I had that infection. The colour has turned to normal looking now, but its still there. I had urine and bloods done today, but have to wait ages for results. Just wondered if I was on my own on this one....

Aaaaaaanyway, PC went bonkers earlier, so Ive only just done my pic. Here is our little bean/cashew nut(OH)/Hamster(me).....

The head is on the right side. Its like a shadow f it. There is a tiny arm and 2 legs. Its so dark though. We will definately ask for another pic in 2 weeks!!

Good on you for putting in a complaint Honey. He sounds like a jerk. You should ask for a note to be put on your file that you wish to be phoned in advance if you regular dr won't be there, so you can reschedule.

Shelley, I was just noticing this morning that my cm is getting a little more stringy, a bit more 'fertile' looking, not as thick as before. Getting a bit more quantity too, which I know is normal.

I have a killer of a headache. Don't want to take anything, so am waiting for DH to get home so he can give me a head and neck massage. I prob should get off the computer as it won't be helping
